Maryborough Ridge

The Opportunity

Introducing Cork’s most significant residential development opportunity of the past decade.

The site extends to approximately 42.99 acres and is mainly laid out in grass along with some builders’ compounds and subsoil mounds from previous developments. The site is elevated and on about the 110m contour with a westerly aspect offering panoramic views over Cork city and the surrounding countryside.

The site is accessed via the existing Maryborough Ridge Estate where the main entrance off Maryborough Hill is currently being developed by the Receiver in order to facilitate the proposed development.

The western boundary of the site runs parallel with the N28 Ringaskiddy Road which is hidden from view by a mature tree lined buffer zone. To the south and east the site is bound by greenbelt zoned agricultural lands, offering a tranquil semi-rural setting.

Planning Permission

The northern end of the site extending to approx. 18.65 acres has full planning permission under Cork Co. Council Ref 16/07271 and An Bord Pleanala Ref 300056-17 for the development of 198 residential units and a child care facility. Planning has been granted subject to just 27 conditions, one of which relates to a S48 Special Contribution which was successfully appealed.

The proposed development designed by leading architects Deady Gahan is shown in the table below.

Zoning

The entire site is under the electoral jurisdiction of the Ballincollig / Carrigaline Local Area Plan 2017. Under this plan the majority of the site is zoned R-08 Medium Density ‘A’ Residential Development defined as 20 to 50 units per hectare. A small portion of the site with FPP is zoned ‘Existing Built Up Area’.
